I create an environment where the student can feel as if they can ask any question and can make mistakes without being looked down on.  I encourage the student to problem solve their own issues through critical thinking.

I will use positive reinforcement so you understand what is the right thing and what is not. Read More

I will go over a foundation of basics for every student, teaching them how to practice and setting them up for success. Read More

This has always been the case throughout history, and in all fields for that matter. Never allow yourself to get bogged down by futility; there is always another way. Read More
